dumb application ?

moniLUVSmatt

I'm filling out an application for a job that I would LOVE to have and it says: "Use the space below to fully describe any additional job related skills/knowledge/special training."

What kinds of things would you add here? Also would you just list them or would you begin it with: "I have....blah blah"

told you it was dumb! thanks tho!

If you happen to have a certification to something or special training, i.e. supervisory, quality management, etc.  Maybe you speak a foreign language.  Or even some of the events that you help set up, manage, etc. for your church could very well apply to the job.  Non-profit orgs that you volunteer for, etc.

I'm just rattling stuff off...

Thanks Mindy! That's what I was wondering too, if I could put some of the events that I've helped plan at my church.

Try to think of some wonderful qualities you have that you aren't able to mention somewhere else on the application. What would you want them to gather about you that they won't know otherwise? If you want to post what the type of job is / the field I'd be happy to come up some more info for you. I love this kind of stuff.

Good luck!!!!!!

Sorry, forgot to answer the other part. Either a list or sentences is fine. (Sentences if what you are including needs explanation / a list if the skills are self-explanatory and you have a lot you want to pop off the page.)

Its a City job, and it's an administrative asst. for human resources.

Sweet! I would definitely add any church stuff, volunteer work, or organizing.

Go Moni, go Moni!
